Over 3400 Perl Modules

Perl is a preferred scripting language which is used to build various web-oriented apps, including CGI scripts. One of the features that distinguish it from various other programming languages is the usage of modules - parts of Perl program code that perform predefined jobs and they are widely accepted. In simple terms, instead of creating custom-made program code to perform something or pasting tens and hundreds of lines of code inside your script, you will be able to "call" some module that already exists for this particular process and use only a few lines of program code. As a result, your script shall be executed a lot quicker since it is much smaller. Employing modules will additionally make your script easier to modify considering that you will need to browse through a smaller amount of program code. If you intend to use Perl on your site, you have to ensure that the required modules are present on your server.

When you acquire one of the cloud website hosting that we offer, you'll receive access to a large library of more than 3400 Perl modules that are already set up on our cloud server platform. Once you log in to the Hepsia Control Panel, you'll be able to go to the Server Information area where you can see the full list. Some of them are more common than others, however we offer such a large selection because we realize that if you employ an app from some third-party website, it may have certain prerequisites as to what kind of modules should be present on the server or it will not work appropriately. XML::Parser, URI, LWP and DBD::mysql are among the modules that you're able to access and use on your sites.

All our semi-dedicated servers include a big selection of Perl modules which you may use with your scripts. This way, even when you want to use an application which you've discovered online from a different website, you can rest assured that it will work effectively as regardless what modules it could require, we'll have them. Our library provides over 3400 modules including DBD::mysql, URI, LWP, XML::Parser and more - some are frequently used and others not as much. We keep such a large number to be on the safe side and to ensure that any script will work on our web servers even if some module which it requires is used extremely rarely. The complete list of modules that can be used is available within the Hepsia hosting CP provided with the semi-dedicated accounts.
